Horizon view
Horizon from Borda R
27.4333° S, 50.5278° E · cell 29JHM
- Highest horizon point
- Borda R: 11.0° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 206°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 0°, 9.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,382 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 60.2° high at azimuth 328°, 50.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 22:06:22 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
